For some, these decaying logos seem like a reminder of how current internet behemoths like Google and Facebook are destined to fail. But according to the author behind the images, Romanian CGI artist Andrei Lacatusu, they aren’t a metaphor for these corporations specifically–but our minds. Lacatusu told me over email that his intention was not to state that these companies will eventually fall, but to symbolize “the decay of society itself.” Every age has its own form of decadence, he says, and social platforms are today’s scourge.
